The only time you should really try to pay off the debt is if it`s still posted on your credit report in a year or two, if you want to apply for a mortgage. So, marking the debt as satisfied with your mortgage luck will help greatly. But if the debt is no longer on your credit report or falls soon, there is no need to do so. Hello Sara, I recently filed a complaint with Tesco regarding a credit card that I withdrew in 2014. I believe the card should never have been given to me (only two months earlier, a very large loan was taken out from Tesco, including another £9k card that I took out 3 months earlier). Tesco said they didn`t think they could investigate my complaint because the card was taken down more than six years ago. It`s true? Is it worth trying again with them or going to the ombudsman? Thank you If the creditor sends you a copy of your agreement and account statement at any time after requesting it, the creditor may initiate or continue legal action against you in order to collect the claim. I am in a similar position after reading Sara`s advice. The only other advice I have retained is to advise PayPlan not to communicate in writing to your creditors. As Sara said, write to your creditors yourself, but also add that you will not publish any additional written communication. The FCA has published detailed guidance on how lenders should act in the Consumer Credit Sourcebook (CONC).
For more information, see the „Useful Contacts“ section. However, you may not obtain or enforce a court order against you or otherwise enforce the agreement. This means that they must not order the bailiffs, nor file a complaint against your property or obtain against you a seizure of an order of income. You can threaten, but do nothing to enforce the payment. Hello Sarah, I have two debts managed by Link Financial, and the CSCs that delivered them do not agree. One (an old egg card) is generic and does not have my name or address and the other (ex barclaycard) has the right one before, but the conditions indicated date from the year before the launch of the account (accout start 2008 – T &C`s state 2007, so no real copy – or is it?). I drew their attention to this, but I received a lot of excuses that say it is correct and that there is evidence when I thought it was not. So I sent them a copy of the FCA CONC13.1 which indicated that the accounts were unenforceable.
The letter I received was quite aggressive and said, how I drew my own conclusions, then I mixed this problem with an earlier problem I had with them (standard date) and said that the only thing they would discuss was the refund. I applied for a CSF agreement on 13 May 2020 and received a reply on 8 October. Since the debt is an overdraft, they did not provide it, which they do not have to do, according to my vote. But do I have a leg on which I can stand, which it took them five months for them to come back to me? These debts date back to 2008, but they say I`ve paid £20 in the last eight years, which means it`s not prescribed. I note that if the collection company can „rebuild“ the agreement, it means that any collection company can recreate the original CCA – this does not prove that you signed or agreed to it. Westcot credit card debts take by DMP, CCA does not find, almost a year, I stop the payment, I go for the F&F settlement, but this original creditor withdraws. If I negotiate with Westcot. Santander play with credit information, always damage credit score, they can demand high interest rates. Advice, please.
